If you could have your pick of anyone , who would it be? Just curious.
Good question. I would prefer a governor or former governor as governors tend to win presidential elections. The last senator to win the White House was JFK. Besides: legislators make poor executives. Alas: the Republican governors, except for the uninspiring Romney, appear to be sitting this one out.

Someone like perhaps, Bill Clinton?
Or Jimmy Carter?
At best, executive experience may be necessary, but it is certainly NOT sufficient. :o)

Your RIGHT technically, you make a great point! Odds have been on your side , about Senators, or legislators not having the greatest luck, being elected President,but think of it this way, let’s see who the RATS ARE PUTTING UP?! Her THIGHNESS, HILLARY, Obama, AND THE ‘’Breck girl’’ aka Edwards! Every one of those guys was or is a Senator,,,so I still think the GOP has a good shot in 2008!,,,,,,,,,,,,,I did a focus group for registered voters the other day, and even the Democrats that were participating said under no circumstances would they EVER vote for Hillary! They couldn’t stand her!LOL!
